Description

The invention relates to a method for the creation, care and removal of temporary Rasta hairstyles as well as required compositions, components and kits.

A permanent Rasta hairstyle is a hairstyle of tightly braided long braids of usually thin and extremely heavily matted strands of hair. Such hairstyles are also referred to as dreadlocks or dreads, the terms are used interchangeably below. Ethnic hair (eg African or Afro-American hair, so-called kinky hair) offers due to the natural texture and the natural Krause ideal conditions for creating dreadlocks or Rasta hairstyles. With suitable techniques Rasta hairstyles but also in other, including smooth hair qualities, eg Central European or Asian hair to realize. For this purpose, however, it is necessary to create a hair structure tending to the strong entanglement before curling. This is usually done by a combination of chemical and mechanical treatment of the hair. First, it is necessary that the hair is made unnaturally dull and that the dandruff does not rest against the hair shaft but protrude as far as possible. The chemical treatment can be carried out with a hair reducing agent, as used in permanent wave treatments (eg thio compounds such as thioglycolic acid), with the difference that the active compound concentration and / or exposure time are extremely increased. Here, the cuticular layer of the hair is probably completely or partially removed to achieve the necessary tendency to matting. Another chemical treatment is that with a strongly alkaline composition, eg, core soap or an alkaline shampoo without any care additive. Furthermore, an intensive mechanical treatment of the hair to spread the scales is required. This can be done by intense, lasting as many as possible, as long as possible Toupieren the hair with a very fine comb, eg with a Läusekamm or the like, usually with stable metal prongs. Toupieren is also called back combing. These terms are used synonymously below. This leads to an intensive, irreversible entanglement of the hair and the hair is irreparably damaged. Another problem besides the hair damage is that the permanent Rasta hairstyles created with the conventional techniques are not removable again and the entanglement of the hair is irreversible, ie not without Another can be reversed. Anyone who has the hairstyle, it is usually only with a pair of scissors by cutting off the hair again. For fashion-conscious users who want to wear a Rasta hairstyle only temporarily or only for a specific reason, eg for a party on the weekend, the next day but want to have their original hairstyle without damaging the hair structure, therefore, there is a strong need for a technique to create a removable, temporary Rasta hairstyle without hair damaging treatment steps. Another problem with conventionally created Rasta hairstyles is a hygienic one and is that cleaning within the heavily matted strands is difficult or impossible. There is therefore the risk that the matted strands can decompose from the inside out, it can come to odor impairments and even strands can break or fail. For users who want to wear a Rasta hairstyle over a longer period, therefore, a technique is desirable, which allows to open the strands of a Rasta hairstyle after a certain time again and after intensive cleaning and / or care of the hair to be able to create the desired Rasta hairstyle reversibly again.

It has now been found that the object is achieved by the method described below in more detail for the creation, care and removal of temporary Rasta hairstyles. The method according to the invention comprises one or more of the following steps: applying to the hair a roughness of the hair surface enhancing substance or at least one composition facilitating the hair lapping of the hair, applying to the hair an adhesion of the hair to each other and forming temporary rasta wires by stranded Verkletten the hair, without the hair essential, ie irreversible to matt. The Verkletten can for example be done either by gentle Toupieren (back combing), or by one or more times twisting, dividing and pulling the split strands, or by a combination of twisting the strands on the longitudinal axis and light Toupieren the twisted strands. The cleaning of the temporary rasta hairstyle can be done using a concave sponge without destroying the hairstyle. To remove the temporary rasta hairstyle, a wet combability increasing composition is applied to the hair and the rasta wires are opened and / or untangled, preferably mechanically using a common comb or brush.

It was surprising that it is possible to have an authentic or at least almost authentic looking rasta look, i. to create a look like "real" permanent Rastas without damaging the hair and without the strong, irreversible entanglement of hair previously considered a prerequisite. It was also surprising that the removal of the Rasta hairstyle in a simple way is easily possible and make the hair after the removal of the hairstyle sometimes even a nicer and healthier impression, especially in terms of grip, shine and combability, as before the treatment. This is just amazing because so far a Rasta hairstyle is almost synonymous with badly damaged and unkempt hair and now to some extent the opposite can be achieved. In some cases, the care effect goes beyond what would have been expected from the effect of the remover composition C described in more detail below. This indicates a synergistic care effect of the remover composition C in combination with the pretreatment compositions A and / or B described below.

The invention relates to a method for creating a temporary Rasta hairstyle, wherein before, during or after the hairstyle preparation at least one process step takes place, which is selected from (1) applying at least one of the roughness of the hair surface enhancing substance on the hair surface or at least one Toupieren the hair-facilitating composition on the hair and (2) applying at least one of the adhesion of the hair-raising substance to the hair and / or on the hair tips. Under a temporary rasta hairstyle a hairstyle is understood with the visual impression of a Rasta look, the hairstyle in contrast to a permanent Rasta hairstyle is removable and in particular the hair, in contrast to a permanent Rasta hairstyle not or at least not significantly matted but only verklettet, ie tangled hair can be mechanically separated again. According to the invention is also a hairstyle in which not all hair but only individual highlights are inventively treated and verklettet (partial Rasta hairstyle). A roughness enhancer of the hair surface is a fabric which adheres to the hair surface and causes the hair to feel dull or rough to the untreated, clean hair. This substance can be applied to the hair by means of a composition A described in more detail below.

The stability of the temporary Rasta hairstyle is significantly increased if, in addition to the pre-treated with the roughness increasing substance hair adhesion of the hair together raising substance is applied to the hair and / or on the hair tips. The application of the adhesion of the hair-raising substance can be carried out by means of a composition B described in more detail below and may optionally take place before and / or after the creation of Rastasträhnen.

Creation of the temporary Rasta hairstyle

To create the temporary Rasta hairstyle one or more temporary Rastazöpfe (dreadlocks) are created from the pretreated hair according to the invention. This can be done by several methods. At least one of the three techniques described below is recommended, the recommendations being to be understood as exemplary embodiments. All techniques start with the dreadlock creation in the neck. For this purpose, a section across the head (eg of about 3 cm thickness), divided from side to side. The basis of the individual dreadlocks (single strands) depends on the desired thickness / thickness, is usually 6-9 cm ² and can be square, rectangular trapezoidal or triangular. In this technique, you work towards the front of the head, the dreadlocks come to lie like a tile over each other. In order to favor the planned hairstyle case, the dreadlocks are preferably kept in the desired direction when they are created.

Particularly preferred method:

The divided single strand is lightly teased with a suitable Toupier comb evenly from the hairline to the hair tip (clogged, not felted). During Toupierens the single strand is rotated about its longitudinal axis, creating a particularly round and "real" acting dreadlock. Instead of a Toupier comb, it is also possible to use aids which act in the same way, such as Brushes or harrow with bristles, teeth or tines of metal, hard plastic or the like can be used.

Further, preferred method:

The separated single strand is vigorously rotated with its fingers over its longitudinal axis. After 2-3 turns, the strand of hair at the top is divided arbitrarily. The two strands of hair created by the division are now pulled apart, causing the previously created 2-3 turns to move towards the hairline and get stuck in the process (similar to the Toupiervorgang). The turning, splitting and pulling apart of the hair strand is carried out until the entire length of the single strand has clogged.

Further, possible method

The split single strand is vigorously rotated over its longitudinal axis with the fingers until the entire strand is "knotted". The hair ends of the single strand are held, and the train on the longitudinal axis slightly reduced. Now, with a suitable Toupier comb in the already twisted strand is gently into it, without matting the hair. Toupieren takes place over the entire longitudinal axis of the single strand. Then the twisted and tufted strand between thumb and index finger is rolled again to reinforce the verkletteten effect.

Composition A

The application of the roughness of the hair surface enhancing substance can be carried out by means of a first composition A. Suitable substances are e.g. Substances which are solid at room temperature (25 ° C) and which may be in the form of particles. Suitable examples are silica, silicates, aluminates, clays, mica, salts, in particular inorganic metal salts, metal oxides, e.g. Titanium dioxide, minerals and polymer. Also suitable are polymers which give the hair a rough, dull feel, detectable by half-side tests of polymer-treated hair versus untreated hair.

Examples of suitable rough polymers are copolymers of alkylacrylamides, in particular having C 1 - to C 8 -alkyl groups and at least one monomer selected from acrylic acid, methacrylic acid and their simple esters, in particular the C 1 - to C 4 -alkyl esters (INCI: acrylates / octylacrylamide copolymer, acrylates / t-butylacrylamide copolymer eg Amphomer® HC or Ultrahold® 8); Copolymers of vinyl methyl ether and alkyl half esters of maleic acid, in particular the C 1 - to C 5 -alkyl esters (INCI: butyl ester of PVM / MA copolymer, eg Gantrez® ES 425; copolymers of vinyl acetate and crotonic acid (INCI: VA / crotonates copolymer, eg Luviset® CA 66 ).

The roughening agent may be present in composition A in solid, particulate form and is then preferably stably dispersed or may be in dissolved form in a suitable, cosmetically acceptable solvent and then precipitate Apply the solution to the hair and evaporate the solvent on the hair in solid form. A stable dispersion can be achieved by providing the composition A with a yield point which is large enough to prevent the solid particles from sinking. A sufficient flow limit can be adjusted by using suitable gelling agents in an appropriate amount.

Particularly preferred roughening agents of the hair are silica (silica gel, silica) and metal salts, especially inorganic metal salts, with silica being particularly preferred. Metal salts are, for example, alkali or alkaline earth halides such as sodium chloride or potassium chloride; Alkali or alkaline earth sulfates such as sodium sulfate or magnesium sulfate or aluminum hydroxyhalides, eg aluminum hydroxychloride Al ₂ (OH) ₅ Cl. If water-soluble metal salts are used, composition A is preferably an aqueous solution of these salts and is preferably used in combination with a spraying device, for example a mechanically operated spray pump or as an aerosol spray. If insoluble solid particles are used which are insoluble in water, alcohol and / or water / alcohol mixtures, such as silica or metal oxides, then composition A is preferably a gel having a yield point and additionally contains at least one yield point-causing gel former or composition A is a foamable composition additionally containing at least one foam-forming surfactant and / or foam-forming polymer. The foaming can be done by an aerosol propellant or by means of a mechanically operated device for foaming.

If composition A is present as a gel, suitable thickeners are polymers which impart a plastic or pseudoplastic behavior to the composition. The rheological flow behavior of the gel according to the invention is characterized by the existence of a yield point, which is preferably at least 3 Pascal, measured with a Haake RV 12 rotational viscometer, PKV-0.5 measuring system at 30 ° C. and with a shear gradient increasing linearly from 0 to 100 s ^-1 , The gel preferably has a viscosity measurable after exceeding the yield point of 1,000 to 100,000 mPa s, preferably from 5,000 to 50,000 at 25 ° C, measured with a Haake type VT 501 rotational viscometer at a shear rate of 12.9 per second. The yield point is chosen to be at least as great as the pressure exerted by the particles, depending on the weight and surface area of the particles. This prevents a sinking of the particles. The thickeners are preferably in an amount of 0.05 to 10, particularly preferably from 0.1 to 4 wt.% Contain. The respective optimal concentration is chosen depending on the thickener type and the weight of the particles. Suitable thickeners are crosslinked or uncrosslinked polyacrylic acid or polymethacrylic acid. Of the thickeners which may be present in the composition according to the invention are homopolymers of acrylic acid having a molecular weight of 2,000,000 to 6,000,000 mentioned, for example, the company BF Goodrich / USA under the trade name Carbopol ^® are sold. Other thickeners include, for example that sold by BF Goodrich under the trade name Carbopol ^® ETD 2001 or by the company Protex / France under the tradename Modarez ^® V 600 PX acrylic acid homopolymer, acrylic acid / acrylamide copolymers or Sclerotium Gum. Particularly preferred are the copolymers of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid, such as those marketed under the trade name Carbopol ^® 1342 or Pemulen ^® TR1 of Goodrich, United States. Other suitable thickeners are guar gum, xanthan gum, bentonite, hectorite. In an advantageous embodiment, in addition to the thickeners mentioned, which impart a sufficient flow limit to the composition, it is additionally possible for thickeners which do not give the composition in the viscosity range typical for gels sufficient yield strength to be present. Such thickeners are, in particular, celluloses and cellulose derivatives, such as, for example, carboxymethylcellulose, cellulose ethers and hydroxyalkylcelluloses, for example hydroxyethyl or hydroxypropylcellulose. If the thickeners contain acid groups, the acid groups are preferably at least partially neutralized with cosmetically acceptable bases. Suitable neutralizing agents may be organic or inorganic bases suitable for cosmetic purposes. Examples of bases are amino alcohols such as aminomethylpropanol (AMP), triethanolamine or monoethanolamine and ammonia, NaOH and others.

Composition A can also be present in the form of a product which can be foamed or sprayed as an aerosol or non-aerosol. The aerosol products are in combination with a pressure-resistant aerosol packaging unit with a spray or foam head containing a sprayable or foamable composition. The pressure-resistant aerosol packaging of the aerosol spray-wax product of the invention can be made of any known for aerosol spray or foam products material. Suitable materials are in particular metals such as aluminum or tinplate. As a spray or foam heads commercially available spray heads and for the aerosol spray wax product according to the invention commercial foam heads are used. Aerosol propellants are preferably contained in an amount of 1 to 20, more preferably 2 to 10 wt%. Suitable blowing agents are, for example, lower alkanes, for example n-butane, isobutane, propane, butane, or else mixtures thereof, and also dimethyl ethers or fluorohydrocarbons, such as F 152a (1,1-difluoroethane) or F 134 (tetrafluoroethane), and also those which are suitable Compressive gaseous propellants, such as N ₂ , N ₂ O and CO _2, as well as mixtures of the abovementioned propellants are suitable.

Preferably, in an aqueous or in an aqueous-alcoholic medium with preferably at least 10 wt.% Made up of water. The solvent system is preferably contained in an amount of 50 to 98, particularly preferably 75 to 95 wt.%. As alcohols, it is possible in particular to use the lower alcohols having 1 to 4 C atoms usually used for cosmetic purposes, e.g. Be contained ethanol and isopropanol. As additional co-solvents, organic solvents or a mixture of solvents having a boiling point below 400 ° C. may be present in an amount of from 0.1 to 15, preferably from 1 to 10,% by weight. Particularly suitable as additional co-solvents are unbranched or branched hydrocarbons such as pentane, hexane, isopentane and cyclic hydrocarbons such as cyclopentane and cyclohexane. Further, particularly preferred water-soluble solvents are glycerol, ethylene glycol and propylene glycol.

In the case of non-aerosol sprays and non-aerosol foams, the compositions are in combination with mechanically operated devices for spraying or foaming.

The foamable products generally contain at least one foam-forming substance, for example a foam-forming surfactant and / or a foam-forming polymer. The surfactants may have nonionic, anionic or amphoteric character. Particular preference is given to nonionic, foam-forming surfactants. The surfactants can be used individually or in a mixture. The amount of surfactants may vary and is selected to provide a sufficient amount of foam that is readily incorporated into the hair when the composition is applied from the aerosol package or product dispenser. The amount of surfactant is typically from 0.01 to 5% by weight, more preferably from 0.1 to 2% by weight. Suitable nonionic surfactants are, for example, C 8 - to C 18 -fatty alcohols which may be ethoxylated with 8 to 45 mol of ethylene oxide, for example with up to 40 mol of ethylene oxide per mol Fatty alcohol ethoxylated lauryl, tetradecyl, cetyl, oleyl or stearyl alcohol, alone or in admixture; hydrogenated castor oil ethoxylated with from 8 to 45 mol of ethylene oxide, C8 to C18 fatty acid alkanolamides; the fatty alcohols of ethoxylated lanolin or ethoxylated lanolin; Polyglyceryl ethers of saturated or unsaturated fatty alcohols and alkylphenols having 8 to 30 carbon atoms in the alkyl radical and 1 to 10 glyceryl units in the molecule; Polyethylene / polypropylene block copolymers and ethoxylated sorbitan fatty acid esters. Also particularly preferred as nonionic surfactants are derivatives of natural surfactants, for example alkyl polyglycosides. Suitable anionic surfactants are, for example, alkyl sulfates, alkyl ether sulfates, alkyl sulfonates, alkoyl sarcosinates, alkyl isethionates or dialkyl sulfosuccinates where the alkyl groups may contain 8 to 18 carbon atoms. Suitable amphoteric surfactants are in particular those of the betaine type. Examples of betaines include C ₈ to C ₁₈ alkylbetaines such as cocodimethylcarboxymethylbetaine, lauryldimethylcarboxymethylbetaine, lauryldimethyl-alpha-carboxyethylbetaine, cetyldimethylcarboxymethylbetaine, oleyldimethyl-gamma-carboxypropylbetaine and laurylbis- (2-hydroxypropyl) -alkylcarboxyethylbetaine; C ₈ to C ₁₈ sulfobetaines such as cocodimethylsulfopropylbetaine, stearyldimethylsulfopropylbetaine, lauryldimethylsulfoethylbetaine, laurylbis- (2-hydroxyethyl) sulfopropylbetaine, the carboxyl derivatives of imidazole, the C ₈ to C ₁₈ alkyldimethylammonium acetates, the C ₈ to C ₁₈ alkyldimethylcarboxylmethylammonium salts and the C ₈ to C ₁₈ fatty acid alkylamido betaines, for example coconut fatty acid amidopropyl betaine and N-coconut fatty acid amidoethyl N- [2- (carboxymethoxy) ethyl] glycerol (CTFA name: cocoamphocarboxyglycinate).

The alleviation of hair toughening may also be achieved by treatment with compositions such as permanent soaps containing core or hair keratin reducing compounds. The use of permanent wave agents is preferably carried out under mild conditions in which the hair is not badly damaged, eg with low active ingredient concentration and / or short exposure times. The action of the perming agent is based on opening the cystine disulfide bridges of the hair keratin by the action of an agent containing a hair keratin reducing agent (deforming agent). Reducing agents are in particular thio compounds, for example salts of sulfurous acid or certain mercapto compounds, in particular salts or esters of mercaptocarboxylic acids. As a classic permanent wave reducing agent, the thioglycolic acid, for example as an ammonium or monoethanolamine salt, can be used. Other common reducing agents are inorganic sulfites, 2-mercaptopropionic acid (thiolactic acid), 3-mercaptopropionic acid, mercaptocarboxylic acid esters, mercaptocarboxylic acid amides, cysteine and derivatives of these compounds. Preference is given to the salts or derivatives of mercaptocarboxylic acids, in particular thioglycolic acid, cysteine and thiolactic acid or salts thereof.

The permanent wave active substances can be used in an amount of from 2 to 30% by weight, preference being given to low concentrations of not more than 20% by weight, in particular not more than 10% by weight.

By varying the pH value, it is possible to provide a means which is universally suitable for any hair structure, optionally with additional heat. The agents are either acidic (sulfite, bisulfite and mercaptocarboxylic acid ester) or alkaline (alkali metal and ammonium salts of mercaptocarboxylic acids). As an alkalizing agent or as a means for adjusting the pH of eg 7 to 10, in particular 7 to 8.5 are in particular ammonia, sodium hydroxide, organic amines, eg monoethanolamine but also all other water-soluble, physiologically acceptable, basic reacting, organic or inorganic Salts such as ammonium or alkali carbonate and ammonium or alkali metal bicarbonate into consideration. If the agent is acidic (eg pH = 6.5 to 6.9), esters of mercaptocarboxylic acids, for example monothioglycolic acid glycolate or glycerol esters, preferably mercaptoacetamides or 2-mercaptopropionic acid amides, in a concentration of 2 to 14% by weight; or the salts of sulfurous acid, eg, sodium, ammonium or monoethanolammonium sulfite, in a concentration of 3 to 8% by weight (calculated as SO ₂ ).

The permanent wave agents used in the process according to the invention may be in the form of an aqueous solution or an emulsion and in a thickened form on an aqueous basis, in particular as a cream, gel or paste. More preferably, they are in a viscous form with a consistency which makes it possible to treat the hair while sitting and not in the wash basin as usual, eg a viscous preparation having a viscosity of 100 to 10,000, preferably 300 to 1000 mPa s at 25 ° C. The viscosity data refer to the measurement with a Haake rotary viscometer type VT 501 at a shear rate of 64.5 per second. It is also possible to fill these agents under pressure in aerosol cans and remove them as aerosol foam.

The perming agents can be so-called swelling and penetrating agents, such as Urea, polyhydric alcohols, ethers, melamine, alkali or ammonium thiocyanate, isopropanol, dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether, 2-pyrrolidone, imidazolidin-2-one or 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidone in an amount of about 0.5 to 50 wt.%, Preferably 2 to 30% by weight and, in order to avoid overcrowding of the hair, dithio compounds, for example dithiols, dithiodiglycolic acid, dithiolactic acid or the respective salts of dithiols are added.

In the application, the hair can first be washed with a shampoo and then rinsed with water. Subsequently, the towel-dried hair can be divided into individual strands, with only individual strands are treated if only a partial Rasta hairstyle is to be created. The hair is then treated with a sufficient amount, preferably 60 to 120 grams, of the composition. After a sufficient exposure time, which is depending on the hair condition, the pH and the effectiveness of the permanent wave and depending on the application temperature 2 to 30 minutes (5 to 30 minutes without heat, 2 to 20 minutes with heat), the hair with Rinsed water, with rather shorter exposure times are preferred, eg a maximum of 15 or a maximum of 10 minutes without heat or a maximum of 10 or a maximum of 7 minutes with heat.

Suitable substances are, for example, waxes, waxy substances and / or adhesive polymers. Waxes and waxy substances are in particular those substances with properties as defined for waxes in Ullmanns Encyklopadie der technischen Chemie, 4th Edition, Volume 24, page 3 , Accordingly, waxes are kneadable at 20 ° C, solid to brittle hard, coarse to fine crystalline, translucent to opaque, but not glassy, melting above 40 ° C without decomposition, already slightly above its melting point relatively low viscosity, highly temperature-dependent in consistency and solubility and polishable under light pressure. In the following, the terms waxes and waxy substances are used interchangeably. Suitable adhesive polymers are those which give the hair a sticky feel, detectable by half-side tests of polymer-treated hair versus untreated hair.

Suitable hydrophobic waxes are animal, vegetable, mineral and synthetic waxes, microcrystalline waxes, macrocrystalline waxes, solid paraffins, petrolatum, vaseline, ozokerite, montan wax, Fischer-Tropsch waxes, polyolefin waxes e.g. Polybutene, beeswax, wool wax and its derivatives, e.g. Wool wax alcohols, candelilla wax, carnauba wax, Japan wax, hydrogenated fats, fatty acid esters and fatty acid glycerides with a solidification point of above 40 ° C, polyethylene waxes and silicone waxes. The waxes have a solidification point above 40 ° C, preferably above 55 ° C. The needle penetration number (0.1 mm, 100 g, 5 s, 25 ° C., according to DIN 51 579) is preferably in the range from 2 to 70, in particular from 3 to 40. Particular preference is less than 20. Particularly preferred are carnauba wax and ceresin and their mixture. The waxes or wax-like substances are preferably present in the composition B in an amount of 4 to 50% by weight, particularly preferably 8 to 30% by weight, in particular 10 to 25% by weight.

The one containing the adhesion of the hair effecting composition B may be in various forms of application, in particular as a lotion, gel, aerosol spray, non-aerosol pump spray, aerosol foam, non-aerosol foam product or as a solid or semi-solid wax product in crucible or stick form.

• Mono-, Di- und/oder Triester der Phosphorsäure mit Anlagerungsprodukten von 2 bis 30 mol Ethylenoxid an C8- bis C22-Fettalkohole.

In a particularly preferred embodiment, composition B is an aqueous emulsion of a hydrophobic wax and contains in addition to the wax at least one emulsifier and water, wherein the term emulsion comprises any dispersion in water, including those which are strictly speaking suspensions of solid wax particles in Water acts. The emulsifiers are preferably present in an amount of from 0.5 to 50% by weight, more preferably from 3 to 40% by weight, in particular from 20 to 35% by weight. Preferred emulsifiers are those from the class of nonionic surfactants. Suitable are, for example

• Addition products of 2 to 30 mol of ethylene oxide and / or 1 to 5 mol of propylene oxide onto C 8 to C 22 fatty alcohols, to C 12 to C 22 fatty acids or to alkylphenols having 8 to 15 C atoms in the alkyl group,

This embodiment is characterized by a combination of unique effects. Immediately after application to the hair, the stickiness (adhesion) of the hair is very high, which makes the creation of Rasta hairstyle very easy. After drying, the tackiness is greatly reduced, resulting in an improved, more comfortable feel. A slight, not unpleasant residual adhesion remains and causes finished Rasta strands to adhere loosely together, opening up new hairstyle shaping possibilities. The particularly advantageous effect of the selbstätig weakening adhesive force is particularly pronounced in combination with silica as the roughness of the hair surface enhancing substance. Another particularly advantageous effect is the good, residue-free removability of the hydrophobic wax, in particular when using the composition C described below for the removal of the Rasta hairstyle. Composition B is ideally in fluid, i. liquid or viscous form before and is preferably applied via a pump device in fluid form, a spray device as a spray or with a device for foaming as a foam. With regard to the other constituents for aerosol and non-aerosol embodiments, reference is made to the above information regarding composition A.

In a further preferred embodiment, the adhesion of the hair to each other increasing composition B is a microemulsion gel. The microemulsion is formed from a hydrophobic, at room temperature (20 ° C) liquid oil component, emulsifiers and water. In addition, an adhesive polymer may be included. Suitable emulsifiers are the abovementioned emulsifiers in the abovementioned amounts.
